I see a lot of tips for reducing flare ups include stop smoking, and while I don't smoke cigarettes, I do smoke weed and vape. I do want to quit vaping, but I self-medicate for other conditions I have with weed, so I'm curious as to how smoking affects HS?
My doctor for years had been trying to get me to quit. I personally don't think it affects negativity towards HS. I think they tell you that for your own good. Just to try and get you to quit. It used… read more

Thanks. I think the blood sugar is causing the candida. Which in turn keeps my mast cells triggered and causing constant inflammation. I want sure if anybody on here has candida issues as well?
I had a bad flare a while back and it ended up bursting then leaking for a few days, I am not left with a hole that doesn't seem to be healing.
I have been using NanoSalv wound treatment in it which has helped close tunnels before but does not seem to be doing much on this. Can anyone give me suggestions on how to get it to close?
It sounds like you're referring to tunnels associated with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). These tunnels, also known as sinus tracts, are hollow connections that typically form between infected HS… read more
